This does not work for a number of reasons:

1) the -estat concordance- command does not allow
the -beta()- option (see: -help stcox_postestimation-)
instead it works in part with the active estimation
results (see -help estimates-).

2) You returned the results in r(Harrell) but your
-simulate- command expects them in r(C). (see:
-help simulate-)

3) The resulting dataset would store the results in
a variable called Harrell, but you tried to -summarize-
the variable area which does not exist.

4) The -estat concordance- command does not seem to 
work well on bootstrapped data, so you'll either need
to program your own Harrell's C or choose some other
fit statistic.

Hope this helps,
Maarten
